Chelsea vs Leicester City prediction and odds: Tuchel's fringe players could mean an entertaining game

Chelsea go into their penultimate home game of the season with a takeover bid all but confirmed and Champions League football secured for another season. They go into this match without playing for anything now against a Leicester City side who equally have nothing to play for.

The Blues are the favourites at 2/5 with Betfred ahead of their Premier League match with Leicester at 15/2 and a draw is 4/1. The Foxes have not won their final away game in any of their last 13 Premier League campaigns and have to go back to 1997 for their last win which was against Blackburn Rovers away.

With Champions League secured, Chelsea can now rest easy they have achieved the minimum for the Premier League season but will feel frustration on reflection. Thomas Tuchel's side have not been outside the top four all season and were early title contenders having stayed at the top for eight weeks before losing to West Ham United in December.
